Restored by the Fords, Season 1

these guys are the most talented, creative design team Ive seen ever on design tv!!! they take risks, not boring, think outside of the box! leanne reminds me of the next diane Keaton. not everyone knows that the actress diane Keaton is a crazy talented interior designer as well and her unique style reminds me of Leannes a bit. both are quirky and adorable and very down to earth yet have no interest in fitting in! I just bought the fords book and will be following them and watching everything I can get my eyes and hands on. please, please many more seasons to come I hope!! im so fascinated by design and im like a sponge when I watch them. leanne just gets it!! she had a great line its imperfectly perfect! thats how i view them and their work. when I saw Steves place created my jaw just dropped. they are way outside of the box. maybe not for all but I think anyone thats creative will really see they are special-wether its a style you like or not. soooooo excited for a team like this to stir things up. they just add spice and an edginess to the design show idea that I havent really seen until now. its like they are not here to just please main stream America. they are doing their own thing, taking creative risks and having some serious fun with design. that takes guts!!! and its their talent, not silly drama they might create, that just keeps you enthralled!! but they are wonderfully down to earth and fun to watch as well. again I keep thinking diane Keaton when I see leanne in action, not just look but her taste for the off beat. i just read their book and they were clearly raised with alot of love and their feet on the ground. I know they lost their dad young. but dad for sure is looking down and saying wow right now! your blowing design out of the park! keep it up and create more books, product lines, shows. think this is the tip of the iceberg for this team!! if only I could higher them!! from a huge new fan!!

My new favorite HGTV TV show. I love the Fords relationship and they do great work together. Fun show to watch and great takeaways for your own home.

Dont order this to watch. Everything they do looks the same. What a complete waste of time. I would have give it a zero but I was forced to give it one star. ZERO is what it should have gotten. It sucked.

Love them, love the designs. This show is my favorite. A Billion stars!

I love watching the Fords and what they do with things in peoples homes that they reuse in the new design.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this show!!! I feel that Leanne and Steve are respectful of the architecture and time periods in which the homes were built while giving them the refresh that they need and deserve. Im not sure what the 1 star ratings were about because the design is amazing. Design is personal and perhaps its just not their style. I appreciate how thoughtful they are in repurposing materials where it makes sense.

I thought I didnt like this show as much as other home improvement shows, but after watching MANY home restoration/renovation/purchasing shows, this is different. Its a different more minimalistic design and I really like it. Many of the others are very typical and predictable. I have seen LeAnn design some beautiful rooms and want to incorporate parts in my house.

I’m sorry, but I can’t stand this show. Steve is not careful at all, is hard to understand, and looks idiotic with his hats and how he wears them. And she lacks any hint of style with her designs. Blah!

She may have good current style but Restore she does not. I watched 2 episodes where she destroyed original mid century details by painting them white. Painful to watch.

I love this show so stinking much. Leanne and Steve are the funniest brother/sister duo and they are so real and authentic. They are totally at ease and unlike some other reviewers, it feels way less scripted than most reality shows out there. Even less scripted than Fixer Upper felt at times. I love her design aesthetic and how playful and fun they both are. This is totally my new favorite show and I’ll be sad when I get through both seasons!
